The annual VSC Veterinary Education Symposium was established by a group of enthusiastic veterinary educators working in vet schools in the UK and Dublin. The symposium takes place over two days during the summer. It rotates around the schools and aims to be an economical way for veterinary educators to share ideas and innovations for teaching undergraduate and postgraduate vets. In 2018 the VetEd-symposium will for the first time be organized outside the UK and Ireland.

The symposium has a friendly and inviting atmosphere in which to share ideas, innovations, research and best practice in veterinary education. Invited keynote speakers are intended to be informative and stimulating. We invite short communications, posters and workshops. All short communications and posters are presented in a group session. Posters are also being displayed throughout the conference. Workshops are intended to be interactive and cover a wide variety of topics. Networking opportunities are emphasized. The symposium welcomes a wide range of delegates including veterinary educationalists, clinicians, academics, veterinary students, practitioners and researchers from across the globe!

In 2018 the VetEd-symposium will be organized at the faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Utrecht University, the Netherlands.
